As a happily retired 65 yea old guy who lives out of town on 10 acres with chickens, cows, and a pack of spoiled mutts(5) i found retirement income pays the bills but not much extra for projects. I have taken up woodworking and small engine repairs from where i left off in 1973. I had changed to a profession that spanned 45 years but wanted to get back to some roots.
Well i decided i needed to find part time work so i applied at a home improvement store i frequent. Thats where i screwed up! They hired me. Now i have to resist shopping after work for tools and materials and try not to spend the paycheck. Now i can possibly get into the cull lumber and get a discount on new stuff but this could be a problem. But it can certainly help with expanding y flock! At least they don't sell baby chicks.
I reckon most retirees face the same dilemma because several of my friends are going to parttime jobs for project funds. Funny, they all have started with chickens also.
